December 19. j From tb: A '.bior.. A bullttin was yefleidny handed about in the miniikrial circles fining that the Auf trians had taken poffefficn of G<*noa. This intelligence i«faid to be contained in letters from L*-£horn, brought to this country by captain Hardy (Lord Nclfon'scaptain) who arrived a lew days ago in the Fox cutter irom Cuxhaven. The report cannot be reconcil ed with tho accounts ill the last 'journals re ceived from the continent, belt however er roneous it may be, the freezing of the Elbe tiay cccalion a confidersble time to elapse >efore it can be absolutely cor.tradifted, if he arrival of the French papers does not in he mean time, put us in the pofieflion of he events which have lately occurred in the LigurUn territory, without waiting for the Hamburgh maifs. Captain Hardy left Palermo the 14th of November. The date of his leaving Lcg 10m we have not learned, but he mull have lad a tedious voyage, or have p ilTed n eon ideiable time at the latter pla?e to enable )im to bring any news relative to the fit.ia jon of Genoa, later than that which we have received by Pari;, journals.

This information is conveyed to month of May. f us in a letier from Strafburrh, of the 7th Before c:;pt. Hardy left Sicily, Sir Tho- instant, and inserted in the Moniteur. f tlrtr »as Trowbridge hnd proceeded to Malta to l2th .

Several of our newspapers hive reported, that La i'ayette has received orders to quit Paris. This is certainly untrue, as he has not been ticre since his return to France. He resides on his estate at some diUance from the ccpital. Madame La Fayette has feeli Buonaparte ; but the consul declined any positive interference, or even avoweu knowledge of her hulbmd's retnrn. Sieyes observed a iimilar conduit, when the ftine lady waited upon him. Both Sieyes and Buonaparte live in great seclusion, and are fcldom to be le~n. The late decree of the French consulate, withdrawing all further supplies for the maintenance of their prisoners, was extreme ly sudden and unexpedled; as only a few days before, M. Perigeaux, the banker, re mitted to Mr. Hammer/ley 60,0001. on tins account, with the promise that the payments (hould be regularly made in future. Capt. Swinborne alio brought over a bill of ex chmge fcr 11001. for the fame service. One of the la 9 ordinances of the En'peror Paul in regard todrtfs is, that every person fhull have his wnilkers cut off. No other than cocked hats and fuU drefied costs are permitted at Peterlburg ; and when his Im perial Majesty appears, though the weather be ever so bad, and the Rivets dirty, every pArson mud get out of his carriage and pad dle through the mud, while he pafles.

It is. both with rcfpecl to the names, and forms, a medley of the republican governments, an cients and modern, of those of ihe United States, and of leveral cantons of Switzer land. It i<, in a word, a Cfcppofition of Vriftocracy and of Democracy, in which the fiift predominates. We (hall, beforewe fay any more 011 the fuhjeft, wait till it has re ceived »he fanfliou of being laadc public. We (hall not, to all appearance, have long to wait, if we may believe the Ami de Loix, for it assures us that the Legislative body Would be convottd on the 13th, and that on the 18th the conftitmion would be sent to all the departments. This circurnftance leads us dill mere to believe that the (ketch which Rcederer has given us of it, is in the main exa&. All the other paper have be. (ides argued on the fame bnfis, as oil certain data. It i*9 supposed that the approaching pro mulgation of the public tftablifhment, as Rcederer calls it, will render the legislative debates more intcrefting than they hav: late ly been. They have been dedicated, as usu al, to founding thebottomlefs abyss of the republican finances. Neither the political schemes of Siepes, nor the imperious decisions of Buonaparte, nor the concilatory propofuions of general Hedouvillt and the commissary Lecointe Puyiavtau, have bad any, pacificatory in fluence ot> the Royalists of the weft. The fufpc fion of arms appears to have been merely nominal and confined to the chiefs ; it has probably deprived and the C houans of a very small number of sol dier;. We fee that they extend and multi ply in ever) diredion ; and hitherto no force capable of flopping them has been sent either into Nrrmandy, Britanny, Marine, Anjou, or Proitoia. The ilfue of this con test between Royaiifm and the republic will depend, we conceive, in a great tneafure on what the new civil a<d religious code may be.
